Michelle York+FollowShark Bites: What’s Really Going On?Shark bites in South Carolina and Florida have everyone buzzing—two people bitten on Hilton Head in one week, and a 9-year-old girl in Florida nearly lost her hand while snorkeling! But here’s the wild part: experts say shark attacks are still super rare (you’re more likely to get struck by lightning). If you’re hitting the beach, remember: swim in groups, avoid shiny stuff, and stick to lifeguard zones. Sharks are out there, but attacks? Not as common as you think! #SharkBite #BeachSafety #HiltonHead #Science111Share
Jessica Hodge+FollowShark Attack at Hilton Head?!A woman just got bitten by a shark while swimming at Hilton Head Island—right near a super popular resort. She’s okay (not life-threatening), but wow, talk about a vacation story! This happened just weeks after a giant great white named Contender was spotted nearby. No one knows if it was Contender or another shark, but experts say shark bites are still super rare. Still, would you go swimming after hearing this? #SharkAttack #HiltonHead #BeachLife #Science200Share
